Metrics : Tolerant

Definition

Accepts approximate or short-handed written names

Rationale

When capturing from written records, it will be necessary to accept alternative notations.

Possible measure

This is also assessed as a three valued indicator: 0 if there is no possibility to find the code for a given trail; 50% if it is possible with an exact matching with the vaccine name as recorded in the code system; and 100% if approximate matching with abbreviations for concrete and abstract vaccines is supported. Such abbreviations are extremely common in paper trails.
